Thanks for the quick response,
you are right. It seems that the filter MPEG2TransportStreamFromPESSource does not generate correct PCR data, as the ts file generated with the sample overflows vlc also. If I open the out.ts file with VLC , the messages window fills with "main debug: waiting decoder fifos to empty" messages. Also, if i stream the ts file with testMpeg2TransportStreamFramer the result is the same, it sends with about 50Mbps instead of 6Mbps which is the correct bitrate. If I pass a ts file created with a third party muxer to testMpeg2TransportStreamFramer it seems to work ok.

When this happens, it's usually because your 'framer' object is not able to compute the duration of each Transport Packet (and so, each packet gets the default duration of 0). The reason for this is probably that your "MPEG2TransportStreamFramer" is not finding PCRs in the Transport Stream data.

What I do is basically this:
{
   ByteStreamFileSource* fileSource
   = ByteStreamFileSource::createNew(*env, inputFileName);
 if (fileSource == NULL) {
   *env << "Unable to open file \"" << inputFileName
    << "\" as a byte-stream file source\n";
   exit(1);
 }
 MPEG2TransportStreamFromPESSource* tsFrames;
 MPEG2TransportStreamFramer* tsFramer;
   FramedSource* esVideoSource;

MPEG1or2Demux* baseDemultiplexor = MPEG1or2Demux::createNew(*env, fileSource);

MPEG1or2DemuxedElementaryStream *videoES = baseDemultiplexor->newRawPESStream();

tsFrames = MPEG2TransportStreamFromPESSource::createNew(*env, videoES);

   tsFramer = MPEG2TransportStreamFramer::createNew(*env, tsFrames);

This looks good. However, you should first try just converting the Program Stream file into a Transport Stream file, e.g., using our "testMPEG1or2ProgramToTransportStream" demo application (whose code you have adapted).

I.e., first try to generate a Transport Stream file from your Program Stream file. Then, try to stream that file. That may give you some insight into what is going wrong.
